A UCI student is running at her top speed of 5.1 m/s to catch a Shuttle bus, which is stopped at the bus stop. When the student is still a distance 42.0 m from the Shuttle bus, it starts to pull away, moving with a constant acceleration of 0.163 m/s2. For what distance does the student have to run at 5.1 m/s before she overtakes the bus?
In a classic clip on Americas Funniest Home Videos, a sleeping cat rolls gently off the top of a warm TV set. Ignoring air resistance, calculate the position and velocity of the cat after (a) 0.100 s, (b) 0.200 s, and (c) 0.300 s.
An AUS student drives from home to attend her 9 am class. She drives east for 15 minutes at 80 km/h and noted that she had a flat tire. She stops for 45 minutes replacing the flat tire with the spare tire. She then continues her journey eastward traveling another 37 km for 18 minutes to reach the campus. Her average velocity during the entire period is approximatly. a ) 64 km/h b ) 44 km/h c ) 39 km/h d) 6 km/h
A sperm whale can accelerate at about 0.140 m/s^2 when swimming on the surface of the ocean. How far will it travel if it starts at a speed of 1.20 m/s and accelerates to a speed of 2.5 m/s? Assume the whale travels in a straight line.
The polar bear is an excellent swimmer, and it spends a large part of its time in the water. Suppose a polar bear wants to swim from an ice floe to a particular point on the shore. The bear dives into the water and begins swimming. As the bear swims, it tires and slows at a rate of 0.0122 m/s/s. By the time it reaches the shore, which is 40.1 m from where it dove into the water, its velocity is 2.13 m/s. How fast was the bear swimming when it first got into the water? ____________m/s

A rescue helicopter is hovering over a person whose sailboat has capsized. One of the rescuers tosses a life preserver straight down to the person with an initial speed of 1.25 m/s and observes that it takes 1.75 s to reach the water. How high above the water was the preserver released? Note that the downdraft of the helicopter reduces the effect of air resistance on the falling life preserver, so that an acceleration equal to that due to gravity is reasonable.
